Apricot Kernel Oil

Apricot Kernel Oil is extracted from apricot kernels and has a very high Vitamin E content (aiding fast absorption) and is a trygliceride composed of 75% oleic acid and 20% linoleic acid, and unsaturated fatty acids esterified with glycerin - similar to avocado oil and sesame oil. Found to be highly compatible with the skin. Apricot Kernel Oil moisturizes and softens skin while helping retain clarity and suppleness.

Caffeine

An odorless, slightly bitter alkaloid, Caffeine has been shown to help reduce the appearance of puffiness when used in skincare products.

How to Apply:
-Wet face and gently massage facial energizing scrub onto skin in upward and outward circular motion
-Avoid immediate eye area
-Rinse well
-Use two, or up to three times weekly
-For best results, use prior to shaving

Kiehl’s Insider Tip:
For a close, comfortable shave, use Facial Fuel Energizing scrub first to help break down tough facial hair and minimize ingrown hairs and other skin irritations related to shaving.

Rated 5 out of 5 by blakerboo great scent, deep exfoliation
I absolutely love this product. I'm really big in to face scrubs, I feel like it controls my acne outbreaks and cleans out pores to stop them from getting blocked and breaking out.
I use the scrub about three times a week, every other day or so. I use it before I shave and it helps get rid of the dead skins and refresh my face. I also use it if I've had a lot of sunscreen on my face or double layers of sunscreen as it clears out your pores effectively.
I don't like face scrubs where the beads melt away- and this product is perfect as the scrubbing beads stick around and allow you to really exfoliate the beard area. Great value, scent and very effective. I keep the large tube around at all times and it lasts a long time too. Use the Facial Fuel cleanser and toner afterwards for a perfect combo.

Too bad they're not manufacturing it any longer. Why, you ask, would they keep it on the website rather than remove it? Good question. Kiehl's?

Rated 5 out of 5 by Weinbagel This scrub saved my face
Not just for men!! I have suffered from acne for most of my life, and have tried all different types of products and treatments and nothing seemed to work permanently. Then I discovered Kiehl's. I started using this scrub about six months ago, and it has cleared up my acne completely. I am truly grateful for this product.

Plastic micro-beads are bad for the environment.

I'm not one to usually use scrubs, but this one has been one of the exceptions due to how amazing the product is. As all scrubs I'd suggest using once your skin is moist from warm water. I also suggest rubbing a small amount on your skin, lightly, in a circular motion until satisfied. Probably best to only use this a few times a week.
Again, although this is labeled for men - Women can, and are encouraged to, use this product

This is the best scrub I've ever used. Not too rough but with the prefect texture for exfoliating. Gentle enough for daily use! I highly suggest this if you're looking for something to keep oil at bay, minimize breakouts, and keep skin radiant!

This scrub is by far one of the best I have ever used. It scrubs off dead skin and leaves my skin feeling so smooth! I can also feel my facial hair soften, leaving my face prepared for a comfortable shave.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DGL857 Feel the scrub
This scrub lets you know it working. There is generous grit with a pleasant scent. My face feels very smooth after without being dried out. I use it at night instead of before a shave, as I don't like the idea of scrubbing my skin too hard before a shave that already irritates my face.
